FAQs
What is UA Storm technology?
UA Storm technology is a protective layer applied to fabrics that repels water and wind, making the garment water-resistant without sacrificing breathability.
Is this vest suitable for very cold weather?
The vest provides lightweight warmth and water resistance, making it suitable for cool or transitional weather. For extreme cold, it is best used as a mid-layer over warmer insulation.
How do I wash the vest to maintain its performance?
Machine wash cold with like colors. Avoid bleach, and tumble dry on low heat. Do not iron or dry clean. It's also recommended to reapply water repellent treatment periodically.
What does 'spacer fabric' mean?
Spacer fabric is a type of textile construction that creates a small gap between layers, offering insulation, breathability, and stretch while remaining lightweight.
Does the water repellent treatment use harmful chemicals?
This vest uses a fluorine-free water repellent treatment, which is a more environmentally conscious option.
Can I wear this vest over a bulky sweater?
While the vest is designed for layering, it offers a performance fit. For optimal mobility, it's best layered over thinner base layers or mid-layers. Bulky items may restrict movement.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems reduced.
Reapply a fluorine-free water repellent treatment after washing. Ensure the garment is clean before treatment for best results.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or wax to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.
Fleece lining feels matted.
Ensure the vest is not exposed to high heat during washing or drying, as this can damage the fleece. Follow the recommended care instructions carefully.
